-they mention how XV will just conclude one story, and keeps talking about sequel of XV possbility.
-the actually mention car and world map. Nomura says how when they were developing for PS3, when you speed up the car during the world map, it gave them trouble.
-mentions about co-op and smartphone/tablet support possibilities.
-Nomura wants to make all the scenes which you don't control the character in pre-render CG, but he knows thats not possible. So they are having visual works(the CG team) make the basis for cutscenes and makes that scene in real-time. Its like how they made Agni's Philosophy.
-the scenes we saw at E3 are using the current rendering engine, but they will shift to Luminous studio.
-they are using lens flare for lock-on.
-the summon stuff I talked about earlier
-the theme for the game is "bond"(Kizuna). The main story is serious, but there will be a lot of humor/comedy in the game.
-next info likely in TGS.

Cor and other stuff

Well that at least tackles a hilarious debate that's been going on about an all-guy party .

Kind of glad to hear about the fact that they didn't decide to make the towns smaller and there being large explorable areas.

Do hope this continuing saga thing all works out. I don't mind sequels long as each individual game is solid on its own.

Finally, Famitsu points out that there appears to be an overwhelming amount of male characters. Nomura jokingly responds, “At the end of the trailer in the part with the aligned faces, there’s one new female character… Okay, it’s full of guys (laughs).

Oh boy, Nomura is not sure about the cast. I hope they change the Game Over option they had in mind.

The most interesting part I noticed was actually something else:

Quote:

“That’s really easier because previously when I created the character [costumes], all of the CG team and all of our entire development team always asked me ‘Is this leather? Is this coton? Is this nylon? How many percentage? Dadadada.’ That’s a lot of detailed questions, so it’s always difficult to precise what kind of texture are the clothes made off and stuff like that, so that’s why this time we had the actual clothes made and then we take it from there and put it in the game.”

I'm glad I'm not the only one who has trouble understanding Nomura's fashion sense for his characters

It's not the fashion sense problem, though. If you work in this field, you will know that you need as many details as possible to do the right animation for CG, while designer just thought that they choose this kind of material or texture for the outfit, but usually they don't go into detail that how and what they are made of.

Oh boy, Nomura is not sure about the cast. I hope they change the Game Over option they had in mind.

Yeah, generally when I hear that it'd be quite difficult to have a female playable that's pretty much putting the stake in that idea. Though I suspect it was never a plan and now with all the questions about it they are at least trying to figure out if that's doable. That or maybe it's all related to a plot twist at some point in the story so stating whether or not there is a playable female character would take away from that.

Certainly wouldn't be the first RPG that gave you a game over when the main character died in battle. Though to be fair I don't think that's been a very Final Fantasy thing to have happen.

Or if you want something more gut-wrenching, she is playable for the first few hours with fun, game-breaking abilities that's on par or surpasses Noctis', but then she betrays you and leaves your party for most of the game. Worse if she's a recurring boss battle from here on out.
